Mariah Carey finds songwriting "very healing".
Mariah Carey
The 'We Belong Together' hitmaker feels like a "different person" when she's not in the studio.
Speaking to make up artist Kristofer in a preview for the season finale of her E! reality show 'Mariah's World', she said: "I need to be in the studio. I feel like a different person when I'm not in the studio.
"Performing is a whole different thing, but being in the studio is creating and that's what I love to do best. Songwriting is very healing for me. The studio and the experience of creating new music, it feels so much more like home to me than anywhere else."
It comes after it was revealed the 46-year-old singer has penned a track about her split from James Packer.
Mariah recently recorded the song and an accompanying music video with YG and it is expected to make its debut during the season finale of her E! reality show 'Mariah's World' this weekend.
Meanwhile, Mariah's manager recently teased the star - who is dating back up dancer Bryan Tanaka - is busy working on a "secret project".
She said recently: "We have a secret project. We do have a scripted drama that we are developing that has not been announced about Mariah's life that's going to be incredibly poignant ...
"We'll hopefully do, you know, holiday movies with them, and the first of which we were supposed to do this February, but of course we have this tour, so we had to push it. But we'll get a good movie out to the public."
And Mariah is said to be very happy with her new beau.
A source recently revealed: "They're in a proper relationship
now. She's really into Bryan. He's with her 24/7. He's a nice guy. They weren't together when she broke up with James."
